Score: ✧✧✧✧✧ |
I Sodi di San Niccolò shows an intense ruby red color and nuances of garnet
red, little transparency. The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing,
refined and elegant aromas that start with hints of black cherry, plum and
blackberry followed by aromas of violet, blueberry, vanilla, tobacco,
chocolate, pink pepper, leather, licorice, mace and menthol. The mouth has
excellent correspondence to the nose, a tannic attack and however balanced
by alcohol, full body, intense flavors, agreeable. The finish is very
persistent with long flavors of black cherry, plum and blueberry. I Sodi di
San Niccolò ages for about 30 months in barrique followed by 12 months of
aging in bottle. |
